Chapter: 1680

At this moment.

Ye Cheng and Gu Yanzhong's family had finished dinner and had been pulled by Gu Yanzhong to drink a few cups of white wine. Then they returned to Lin Wanqiu's arranged guest room, took a bath, and lay down to rest.

Just then, Xiao Churan gave him a call, asking, "Husband, how's the progress in Yanjing?"

Ye Cheng smiled and said, "It's going well, overall it's quite smooth. I'll be done within three days at most."

"That's good." Xiao Churan nodded, concernedly saying, "Take care of yourself outside, after all you've never left home before."

Ye Cheng felt a bit moved in his heart, smiling and said, "Don't worry, wife. I'm an adult too, able to take care of myself. Once I finish my work here, I'll immediately come back."

"Okay." Xiao Churan smiled, saying, "Oh right, husband, there's something I need to ask you about."

"What's wrong, wife? Why are you still being so polite with me? Just say what's on your mind," Ye Cheng asked.

Xiao Churan said, "Well, Lin Feng and I were chatting today, and she just happened to be returning to Yanjing. And her grandmother is having a birthday party tomorrow at noon. Can you help me buy some gifts and attend the celebration with her?"

Ye Cheng thought about the timing, thinking that most of his things would be taken care of by tomorrow.

He had to accompany Gu Yanzhong in the morning to attend the board meeting at Gu's group, then visit the ancestral temple on Leafy Mountain to pay respects to his parents. However, there was no specific plan for the day after tomorrow, and originally he thought about staying an extra day to see if everything could be settled before leaving Yanjing.

So, even if he didn't have a fixed departure date from Yanjing, attending Lin Feng's grandmother's birthday party wouldn't be a big issue either.

However, Ye Cheng felt slightly uncomfortable about something.

Lin Feng had come to Yanjing by plane and hadn't asked him to attend her grandmother's birthday party at the time. Then she mentioned it to Xiao Churan, probably guessing that if he was told, Xiao Churan would definitely ask him to go.

Ye Cheng didn't really feel anything for Lin Feng, but she always had some subtle designs that made him feel a bit excluded.

It was just like when she invited Xiao Churan to soak in hot springs, the real goal was actually for him, but she used indirect methods to find an opening from Xiao Churan. This time it's similar, basically using the same trick again.

He doesn't know what this woman sees in him, and he needs to hurry up and put her out of his mind.

However, Ye Cheng had some reservations in his mind, but he still agreed readily, saying, "Alright, I'll prepare a gift tomorrow and go over at noon the next day."

"Okay." Xiao Churan said, "Thanks for helping me out, old man. I was thinking of going to Yanjing during my university days when Madame Dong was very enthusiastic with me. Originally, I wanted to go there myself, but I have to take my mom to the hospital tomorrow for a check-up, and if everything is fine, she'll be able to remove her plaster cast and fix the missing tooth she's been wanting to do for so long. So I've been really busy these few days and can't get out of it, so I'm asking you to help me out."

Ye Cheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, old lady, I'll take care of it."

Xiao Churan asked, "How about I give you some money and let you find something suitable worth around 10,000 yuan? As for what to buy, just do as you think fit, I trust your judgment!"

Ye Cheng smiled and said, "You don't have to give me any money, I have enough. The clients here have already settled their accounts in advance."

Xiao Churan was surprised and said, "This is so generous!"

Ye Cheng said, "Well, it's only natural for big families like this one."

Xiao Churan said, "Oh! Since that's the case, then I won't bother you with it anymore! Thanks, old man!" JrNovels.com
